12noon Arsenal news: Flaw in Unai Emery's plan, Ousmane Dembele offer, and Mesut Ozil absence

Read about all this and more with our latest Gunners news, rumours and updates.

'MAKES NO SENSE'

ARSENAL supporters have notiiced a major issue with Mesut Ozil's benching against Bournemouth.

Unai Emery left the German as an unused substitute – but fans were not impressed by his replacement on the pitch in Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

LET DEM SWAP

BARCELONA are set to offer Ousmane Dembele in part-exchange as they look to re-sign Neymar from PSG.

Unai Emery is a huge Dembele fan and would love to start him on the wings from January – but could be disappointed if the Catalans send him back to France.

OZ LOST

UNAI EMERY has revealed why he left Mesut Ozil on the bench against Bournemouth.

The German was dropped as Sokratis returned to the line-up in a five-man defence.

‘DISASTERCLASS’

ARSENAL fans slammed Henrikh Mkhitaryan after his lacklustre display against Bournemouth.

The Armenian came under heavy fire as he failed to produce the goods on the south coast.

TOR DE FORCE

LUCAS TORREIRA was the key man for Arsenal as they came out on top at Dean Court.

Sokratis also enjoyed a good game while others struggled.

EZRI PEASY

ARSENAL are ready to bid £15million for Brentford defender Ezri Konsa.

Konsa, 21, was signed from Charlton for £2.85million in June and Arsenal’s spies believe he can step up to the Prem.

TORR-TALLY NORMAL

LUCAS TORRIERA was spotted wearing a Paris Saint-Germain shirt – but Arsenal fans don't need to panic.

The Uruguay international has emerged as a fan favourite following his sensational start to life with the Gunners.

AD TOO MUCH

TONY ADAMS has recalled a boozy night out early in his football career led to him having sex on his car bonnet… and he couldn't even remember it.

The Arsenal legend, 52, claims alcohol addiction took its toll on him and his parents, remembering one particular night out in Essex.

PEAK PRACTICE

ARSENAL are under new management — by order of Peaky Blinders fan Unai Emery.

Emery knows he must also improve his command of the English language… so he is watching programmes like the BBC’s period crime drama about the Shelby family starring Cillian Murphy.

EMERY LIKE A SIEVE

UNAI EMERY fears Arsenal’s defensive frailties will wreck his dream of a top-four finish.

The Gunners have conceded three times as many Premier League goals as Manchester City and Liverpool this season — 15 compared to just five for the top two.

GUNNER BE HONEST

UNAI EMERY has praised his predecessor Arsene Wenger – but says Arsenal were tumbling down under the Frenchman.

The new Gunners boss believes he is starting to lift them back up again, as they currently enjoy a 16-game unbeaten run.
